Led by Andi Mann, research director at EMA and Michael Puterbaugh, VP of marketing for Stratavia, the one-hour webinar will reveal and discuss the outcomes from EMA's recent data center survey, the implications these findings have on large enterprise data centers and to share best practice solutions with data center managers.

Some of the key topics will include the impact of staff costs and trends on data center budgets, difficulties attracting and maintaining skilled resources, the prevalence of other human issues like error rates, how these human issues affect IT and business performance and key tactical and strategic solutions to the most important problems.

EMA says senior level respondents from over 160 large organizations provided feedback on the issues they face in maintaining a cost-effective and highly-skilled data center environment.

According to Stratavia's website, the webinar is targeting anyone involved in managing a large data center environment, especially chief information and chief technology officers. Attendees will also receive a free copy of the EMA Advisory Note "Uncovering Causes and Solutions for Human Issues in Large Enterprise Data Centers," which include further details to the issues discussed during the webinar.

The webinar is scheduled to run on June 3 at 2:00 p.m. EST and interested parties can register here.

EMA's data center survey seems to differ in focus than the standard data center studies we have reported on in the past couple of months, a majority of which looked deeper into green data center trends.

Earlier this month the McKinsey & Company released a study that focused on the cost and energy saving opportunities being "squandered" by corporate and government data centers. While in April, Digital Realty Trust shared the results from a new study it conducted on green data center trends that "show significant changes since 2007."
